Enterprise Settings (Enterprise Version Only)

The Enterprise Settings page lets you modify various elements relating to the Enterprise Dashboard. The page has the following items:

 

Server Shutdown/Start Up Alerts:

Send Alert Email

With this option you can decide if you want notifications when a machine starts up and shuts down, or just when it shuts down if you prefer. To receive notifications you must first configure your email server on the FusionReactor Settings page.

 

Heartbeat Settings for Monitored Instances:

Heartbeat Metrics Fetch Interval

(seconds)

This interval tells FusionReactor how long to wait between each fetch of a monitored instance's metric data (its heartbeat). The heartbeat contains the data that is shown on the Enterprise Dashboard. Note: increasing this value will lower the refresh rate of the metric data shown on the Enterprise Dashboard. Decreasing this value may cause heartbeat failures. It is NOT recommended to set this value below 5 seconds.

Heartbeat Timeout (seconds)

This timeout governs how long FusionReactor will wait for a heartbeat from a monitored server instance. If no heartbeat is received within this time, FusionReactor will count it as a heartbeat failure.

 

Heartbeat Failure Threshold

This setting tells FusionReactor how many times the heartbeat may fail on a monitored server instance before considering it to be DOWN. FusionReactor will then report the server instance as [CONN] on the Enterprise Dashboard and will run the self-healing script for the instance (if configured). If you are receiving monitoring emails and log messages for instances known to be available, try increasing this value. A value of zero will cause the first missing heartbeat to signal the server instance is DOWN.

 

Request Count:

Graph Y Scale

This number will be used as the maximum value on the request count graphs within the Enterprise Dashboard. NOTE: This value is only used for display purposes. Entering a number here will NOT limit the number of requests a server will accept!

 

Memory:

Memory Status (percent)

These two numbers (Warn and Critical) are used as threshold values to work out if a server should be put into a warning or critical mode when it is displayed in the Enterprise Dashboard. If the used memory percentage exceeds the Warn value then it will appear in orange. If it exceeds the Critical value then it will appear in red.

 

Average Request Time:

Average Request Time (ms)

These two numbers (Warn and Critical) are used as threshold values to work out if a server should be put into a warning or critical mode when it is displayed in the Enterprise Dashboard. If the average request time (over the past 60 seconds) exceeds the Warn value then it will appear in orange. If it exceeds the Critical value then it will appear in red.

Graph Y Scale (ms)

This number will be used as the maximum value on the average request time graphs and bars within the Enterprise Dashboard. NOTE: This value is only used for display purposes. Entering a number here will NOT limit the amount of time requests can run on a server!

 

JDBC:

JDBC Status (ms)

These two numbers (Warn and Critical) are used as threshold values to work out if a server should be put into a warning or critical mode when it is displayed in the Enterprise Dashboard. If the average DB time exceeds the Warn value then it will appear in orange. If it exceeds the Critical value then it will appear in red.

Graph Y Scale (ms)

This number will be used as the maximum value on the average DB time graphs and bars within the Enterprise Dashboard. NOTE: This value is only used for display purposes. Entering a number here will NOT limit the amount of time database requests can run on a server!

 

Crash Protection:

CP Status

These two numbers (Warn and Critical) are used as threshold values to work out if a server should be put into a warning or critical mode when it is displayed in the Enterprise Dashboard. If the number of triggered crash protections (for a given type: request quantity, request timeout or low memory) exceeds the Warn value then it will appear in orange. If it exceeds the Critical value then it will appear in red.

 

Slow Requests:

Slow Page Status

These two numbers (Warn and Critical) are used as threshold values to work out if a server should be put into a warning or critical mode when it is displayed in the Enterprise Dashboard. If the number of requests running longer than the slow page threshold within the last 60 seconds exceeds the Warn value then it will appear in orange. If it exceeds the Critical value then it will appear in red. You can change the slow page threshold from the Metrics Setting page.
